WP:MOVETODRAFT userscript

edit

Hello Jonathan Deamer, I've tagged a redirect for CSD R2 that remained after you draftified Draft Hassan Hussein Musa. You might find the MOVETODRAFT user script helpful for draftification. It informs creators about the draftification process and tags remaining redirect for CSD R2 after the move. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:50, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the heads up, DreamRimmer. Was the first time I've done that and wasn't sure I did it right. Will check out the script! Jonathan Deamer (talk) 14:53, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello there!

Hi Jonathan - hope you're keeping well and having a happy New Year! Just wanted to stop by and say it was a pleasure getting to know you at the end of last year through Train the Trainer (I've only just found out what your username is, otherwise I'd have wished you a Merry Christmas too!). I hope to get involved in more Wikimedia UK outreach work soon. :-) Patient Zerotalk 01:31, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey @Patient Zero, good to hear from you! Glad you found me here :)
Was great getting to know you too! I'm excited to run a training session or similar soon. Anything like that on your radar right now? Jonathan Deamer (talk) 20:14, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! I am hoping to be able to do that near to where I live in the forthcoming months, ideally with a group who identify as neurodivergent in some way and from an accessibility/inclusion perspective. I also wouldn't mind travelling a little further to do that if needs be! Patient Zerotalk 22:17, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

AFD

edit

Hello, Jonathan Deamer,

I encourage you to withdraw the AFD you provided a nomination statement is. Then it can be closed as several editors want to happen. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Liz, thanks for being in touch. Agree that closure seems like a good course of action, but am I able to withdraw a nomination that wasn't really mine? I didn't create the AfD myself. WP:PROCEDURALCLOSE says: "A deletion discussion that is poorly formatted should not be closed for this reason alone, in order to avoid biting new users. Instead, fix it." So I fixed the nomination created by another editor. I still see it as "theirs" to withdraw, but happy to be told if there's policy or consensus that suggests otherwise.

A suggestion for the future

edit

Just reviewed your article on Camberley Kate, great work and really interesting subject matter. I have a suggestion for your future articles, as I'm not sure if you have applied for access to The Wikipedia Library yet. It's a really good method of finding sources, especially using Newspapers.com through it. Just for Camberley Kate alone, here's some examples I found:

Feel free to add these to the article, if you're so inclined. And that's just a sampling of the sources that can be found and just from Newspapers.com alone. There's a lot of other really useful databases in The Wikipedia Library. SilverserenC 17:17, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks so much @Silver seren, this is really helpful! I do use Wikipedia Library occasionally, but I always search from the main homepage rather than going directly to Newspapers.com, and that doesn't seem to return sources like the ones you found quite as readily. I used it to access The BMJ for my work on Elizabeth Ward recently, but I'm sure there is lots of local news coverage for her too. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:29, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Jonathan Deamer. Thank you for your work on Robin Hood's Stone. Ingratis, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thanks for the thanks! and for this article. I moved it because although German Wikipedia uses the "curly" apostrophe, English Wikipedia doesn't. Also, when translating from other wikipedias, for reasons of copyright, article history and so forth it's necessary to include in an edit summary the attribution statement given at WP:TFOLWP. On this occasion I've added it but please bear it in mind in any future translations.

Translated articles (continued)

edit

Hi Jonathan. I left you a note above: "when translating from other wikipedias, for reasons of copyright, article history and so forth it's necessary to include in an edit summary the attribution statement given at WP:TFOLWP." I've since sought advice on this, and - with good intentions - have somewhat misinformed you: a translation from another-language wikipedia does need to be attributed but the wording in WP:TFOLWP is only a recommendation - any form of words that conveys the message is fine, and that certainly includes the wording automatically added by the translation tool, so if that is how an article has been translated, there is no need to add anything else. One less thing to do! Best wishes, Ingratis (talk) 13:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for clarifying! It makes sense that the tool would do the right thing by default, but I nonetheless like how explicit the attribution statement you suggested is. Will keep in mind! Jonathan Deamer (talk) 14:31, 24 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Nadler

edit

what's the problem with the statement off his own website? Joshua Olsen (talk) 14:37, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Joshua Olsen, thanks for reaching out.
The main issue with this edit is that it's a statement from Nadler's website claiming that he said something in the House, rather than an independent and reliable source claiming that he said something in the House. In general, we base what's in the encyclopaedia on what's written in such such sources so that we have more confidence we can trust it, rather than using what people say about themselves.
The quote also didn't have any context - it wasn't clear to me whether this was something Nadler had said, voted on, whether he was for or against it etc. It also needs to use inline citations, not a bare URL.
Finally, your edit immediately after this one on the same page was a sentence fragment that didn't make sense and didn't appear to be supported by the source. It wasn't clear whether or not it was vandalism. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 16:08, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I was personally involved in the case and know the edits made to his page to be fact. I'm working on accumulating sources and evidence, but I feel strongly that this information needs to remain on his page. Asdfjklmary (talk) 21:04, 14 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Everything on Wikipedia needs to be verifiable based on reliable sources. Biographies of living persons have especially strict rules around this. Please don't add this information to the page until it's been reported in a reliable source. Even then, please note Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline, which it sounds like may apply here.

I've now fixed the sortkeys of all the MPs - it's worth doing when creating a table like this, as it means they sort properly if you sort the table on multiple keys in succession. I fixed Bob Blackman's party, after I wondered why an SNP MP was represeting Harrow, but I don't know about Geoffrey Cox (British politician) where 1 + 1 = 1 so something is wrong! An interesting table. I do wonder whether most of the "total=1" are people renting out their permanent home while relocating to constituency or London for the job, so different in some ways from those who're into landlording in a bigger way.

Hey again, I'm sorry to see that the article and the associated category have been deleted. I wasn't able to contribute much beyond some minor stuff and being in favour of keeping the article (but missed the discussion on the category sadly). It's a shame to see both of them deleted like that.

Thought I'd ask if you think there's worth in us and some other of the keep/keep-but-expand lot and drafting a new non-list/generlaised article? either specificly on MPs and Landlords/Landlordism, or with Westminster Parliamentarians in gernal (as in including Peers of the House of Lords too), as well as the history of that. Alternatively could go broader again and talk about the intersection of landlordism and politics in the UK and the history of that? There's a few different ways of going about it
